Adobe 9.2: "Roaming Profiles" now supported?

Hello,
there where some Threads reporting "Microsoft Visual C++ Runtime Library errors" when using an Adobe 9.x product with roaming profiles.
Adobe stated in the 9.1 readme, that roaming profiles will be supported in the next version.
Are the problems solved and are roaming profiles now supported with 9.2?
Regards - Frank

Nobody knows?

OneDrive Sync Settings with Domain Account Roaming Profile

This question seems to have been asked in various manners online including here at TechNet but it has never actually been answered that I can find.
Home domain using Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials, client is Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit with Update 1. Logged in as a domain user account with a Roaming Profile and Folder Redirection connected to a Microsoft Account.
Under PC Settings > OneDrive > Sync Settings, everything is greyed out and disabled. I wasn't too bothered about it previously however with Windows Phone 8.1 out now it means that I cannot use Tab Sync with Internet Explorer 11 on the phone.
I have a GPO which excludes the following folders from the Roaming Profile to both allow Folder Redirection to function and also to allow the OneDrive app to function: "Downloads;Pictures;My Pictures;Music;My Music;Videos;My Videos;Dropbox;SkyDrive;OneDrive"
I am using the Primary Computer attribute with a second GPO which limits profile redirection to the users primary computer.
When logging on to my Primary Computer with the Roaming Profile activated, all of the Sync Settings are disabled but on another machine which is non-primary and therefore my roaming profile does not sync, I can connect my Microsoft Account to the local
profile generated on this machine and all of the Sync Settings are available, clearly linked to the Roaming element of the profile.
Is the non-functionality of Sync Settings on domain accounts with Roaming Profiles by design or by virtue of the fact that things are trying to steer away from Roaming Profiles now? I love the Sync features but in that they don't sync everything (3rd party
Application Settings for example) there is a need for both features to exist in parallel.
There is a new section in Group Policy to limit the use of the Sync Settings features for Enterprises which wish to prevent users from using these features so I don't understand the reason for it to not function at all for anyone.

Adobe premiere elements and roaming profiles problem

We bought Adobe premiere elements 12 for use in our school lab environment and after lots of struggle I now see that it doesn't support roaming profiles. Is there a fix for this or have we wasted lots of money.
Is there a way to change the default save location during deployment?

I know that it have to be installed on the c: drive. But my question is if there are any way to change the default save location during deployment. Because Premiere will be installed on c:\program files\adobe\ adobe premiere elements 12\ but the default scratch disks and project location will be automatically tried to save to their roaming profiles the first time and causing the problem.
Remember this is in a lab environment and new users will log on all the time and therefore get the error messages failures.
Again, my question is:
Is there a way to change the default start location during DEPLOYMENT (we use Configuration manager 2012) so that it will always start on for example c:\localmedia instead of their documents or appdata folders which are inside their roaming profile.

Adobe Reader – Preview in Windows Explorer – Roaming Profiles

First sorry for my English, my mother tongue Swiss-German
We are running a Citrix server farm on Windows Server 2008R2 SP1. Recently, the request has arisen to view PDF documents in the preview pane of Windows Explorer. Unfortunately I always get the following error message "Adobe Reader - An internal error occurred"
Now I can just start the application “Adobe Reader”, close the application and now the preview works as long as the Citrix session persists. After a logoff / logon the problem occurs again.
The following analyses have been made:
The problem occurs also without Citrix XenApp
The problem has nothing to do either with user rights or GPO. I got the same behaviour when the User has administrator rights, disabled UAC and without any GPO
The problem only occurs when roaming profile are enabled. When the user has a local profile, the problem disappears, although also in this case Adobe Reader must be started once, so that preview in Explorer works
With Windows System State Analyzer Tool I could see, that just a simple start of the application Adobe Reader creates a lot files in the folder c:\Users\%Username%\Local\Adobe. This part of the profiles are lost in roaming profile after logoff.
There is no folder redirection, as I have seen in some discussions in this forum.
Is there a solution for this problem, perhaps a special setting in “Adobe Customization Wizard” or somewhere else?
Thanks for feedback

The reason you are getting the error is that the prevhost.exe process that is being invoked in the preview pane looks for a folder in the user's local profile, AppData\Local\Adobe\Acrobat\11.0 (or whatever version). We're creating that folder for user's at logon, which solves the issue with the error.

Adobe 9 + Roaming Profiles + Administrator

Roaming Profiles (Vista on 2003 domain) are set to use Adobe Reader 8.
After installing Adobe 9, the program "terminates abnormally".
Adobe 9 runs OK as an administrator (non-roaming).
I tried making a roaming user a local admin temporarily, then returning him to normal user - problem returned.
So far, the only solution is to uninstall Adobe 9 & reinstall Adobe 8.

I'm seeing the same problem with the full version of Adobe Acrobat 9.0 Professional, in what seems to be the same setup, only XP clients as well as Vista are affected.
The exact error messages I'm getting are:
>Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library
>
>Runtime Error!
>
>Program: C:\Program Files\Adobe\Acrobat 9.0\Acrobat\Acrobat.exe
>
>The application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an usual way.
>Please contact the application's support team for more information.
and when viewing PDF files in Internet Explorer:
>Microsoft Visual C++ Debug Library
>
>Debug Error!
>
>Program: C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\iexplore.exe
>
>abnormal program termination
>
>(Press Retry to debug the application)
My Domain Admin account is not affected, even when I assigned it a roaming profile temporarily. Curiously, I tried adding an affected user to the local Administrators group and this had no effect - the user still experienced crashes.
The same user logging onto one of our laptops (which are set to use local profiles even for domain users) does NOT experience crashes.
I've managed to generate a crash dump for this and from reading through the stack trace it appears the problem stems from the PDFLTerm() function in AdobePDFL.dll

What more can I say? We've just bought a site licence for Acrobat so at least I should be able to kick up a fuss, unlike anyone using Reader...

Reader X Folder redirection / Roaming Profiles supported ? by

Are Folder redirection / Roaming Profiles supported in Reader X ?
(that's in systems that use Active Directory in Windows)
Its only been a bug for about 10 years ;-)
cheers pb...

If any Adobe Employee is still reading this, here is the very specific information you need to fix this.
Server 2008 R2 Domain, User profile config:
User's share:
Map to N:
\\LHMAIL\ACCT-TEST3\Teacher1
Profile path:
\\LHMAIL\ACCT-TEST3\Teacher1\0-Profile Folders\Profile
Group Policy Object for user's Organizational Unit
Folder redirection for Application Data:
\\LHMAIL\ACCT-TEST3\Teacher1\0-Profile Folders\AppData
For share: \\LHMAIL\ACCT-TEST3
Share permissions:
Authenticated Users - full control
NTFS permissions:
Domain Admins, Enterprise Admins, Administrators (local), SYSTEM - Full control
CREATOR OWNER - Full control - subfolders and files only
Authenticated Users - List folder / Read Data - this folder only
==================
Basically, Adobe Reader X tests every folder in the AppData path, from right to left down to the root, and it chokes trying to create a file on the root part of a UNC path, which is the server name:
CreateFile \\lhmail\ OBJECT PATH INVALID
This is an invalid action that no program can do, regardless of whatever permissions the program has.
Open Adobe Reader X, using SysInternals / Process Monitor to watch for activity:

As a result, Adobe Reader X opens with a warning box, cannot open in Protected Mode due to "a problem with your system configuration".
This particular error will not occur if:
AppData points to the local system drive (No AppData redirection), whether roaming or not
C:\Users\Teacher1\AppData
AppData is redirected to point at a mapped drive for the network path:
X:\Teacher1\0-Profile Folders\AppData
This second option is the usual workaround to Adobe's problem, but not recommended by Microsoft. Apparently it has negative effects for other Windows services and programs to use drive mappings rather than UNC paths.

4G iPod w/iOS 4.3.3 Now Supports the Bluetooth Hands Free Profile

I was just answering a question and went to the following Apple link:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Supported Bluetooth profiles
With iOS 4.3.3, the 4G iPod now supports the Hands Free Profile (HFP) that many BT headset use.

Those crash maybe is about the new iOS4.3.5 , i also meet the same problem just like you
The whole device became very lag , even worse i can't open some app cause crashed.
What i done is connect to iTunes with my iPod gen4 and iOS4.3.5 in Windows 7 ,and restore it .
First you have to enter the "DFU mode" , shut down your iPod 1st and hold the power button and home button and the same time, and then release the power button after 4 second with holding the home button another 10 second , your device may enter the DFU mode
Second , open your iTunes , select "Restore" .
After i restore my iPod then everything is fine again , try on yours =]

Windows Domain Controller on Windows Server 2012 R2: Hyper-V roaming profiles not loading due to slow connection

I have racked my brain and done everything that I know to do for about two weeks now. I am setting up a new system at our fire department and I am having the worst luck with getting the workstations to login to the domain controller with roaming
profiles. It keeps telling me that the roaming profile could not be loaded because of a slow connection. These are workstations that are connected directly to the switch that the DC is connected to. I have tried multiple connections regarding
the layout (DC into the router, router into the switch). The router is a Cisco RV220W. I have two VLANS, one for public and one for private domain. The Private VLAN has DHCP turned off since I am providing it through the DC. I currently
have a connection from the Private VLAN going to the unmanaged switch that the workstations and server are plugged into.
The server is a Dell PowerEdge R420 that has 6 NIC ports (1 dual port and 1 quad port). I have a virtual switch setup on Hyper-V for an external port (let's say Card 2 Port 3) that is assigned to the WS 2012R2 Domain Controller. The DC can see
the internet fine and the workstations can connect to the shared folders on the server. I can retrieve files by just using the computer name or FQDN. The DC is also running DNS and DHCP. The DNS has the _msdcs setup from when I installed
the active directory role. I have attempted to assign static IP addresses to the workstations:
IP:                     10.0.0.80
Subnet:             255.255.255.0
IPV4 Gateway: 10.0.0.1
IPV4 DNS:        10.0.0.12
I've attempted "append the specific DNS suffix", I've "registered the connection in DNS", I've used "use this connections suffix in DNS registration".
The server is assigned:
IP:                     10.0.0.12
Subnet:             255.255.255.0
IPV4 Gateway: 10.0.0.1
IPV4 DNS:         10.0.0.12
The DNS entries have forwarders that forward to my ISP DNS servers for lookup
I've enabled and disabled DHCP, I've installed a new VM just to create another DC to make sure that I didn't goof up when I created it.
I've lost my patience with this project and am sinking fast. Can someone please offer some advice as to what I've done wrong? I've created this exact scenario at work many times but, I've never done it with Windows Server 2012. Is this
possibly something to do with the Dell PowerEdge server (Generation 12) with the SR-IOV? I am going to attempt to work on it some more tomorrow when I get over there. I think there may be an issue with the SR-IOV not being enabled on the machine
through the Dell Bios. Would the SR-IOV really cause the workstations to report a slow connection? When I login at the domain controller the roaming profiles and folder redirection work fine so, I know the GPO settings are correct. I don't
have "ignore slow connections" or any of those GPO's set. I need to get it working the correct way so, I didn't want to fool the server when there is another underlying problem. Any help that someone can offer, I am more than willing
to listen. If you need more information, please ask.
Thanks,
Jay

So, I've managed to research this some more since Thursday and I've come to the conclusion that Hyper-V does a horrible job of supporting Qualcomm NIC cards. That's the only thing I can conclude as far as where the issue is originating. I've read many
post and walkthroughs but nothing that has helped. The issue wasn't with any settings in the domain controller. The issue was that there really is a slow connection originating at the domain controller that is a VM and has network connectivity through the
virtual switch from Hyper-V. So, next question is, how do I get the DC to have better connectivity through the NIC that Hyper-V won't give it? If hyper-v would allow passthrough, this would be so much simpler. VM-ware is looking really good at this point.
Im disappointed in MS right now.

7310 - Problem with CIFS and Roaming Profiles since upgrade to 2010.Q1.0.2

We have developed a strange problem with our environment which I'm pretty sure is down to the upgrade to 2010.Q1.0.2 from 2009.Q3.4.1 on our 7310 (all the previous 2009 releases had been fine) since nothing else has changed in our environment. I suspect some changes to the underlying CIFS server causing this?
We have virtual Windows servers hosted on a VMWare VSphere cluster which are stored on the 7310 via iSCSI LUNs and also CIFS shares on the 7310 for home directories and separate CIFS shares for roaming profiles - all paths are correct in AD for each user - we also use folder redirection for XP Pro clients to force things like "Application Data", "My Documents" etc. onto the Homedir share.
What we've been seeing recently (which only started happening after the upgrade) is a lot of failed logons to the domain for users. It looks like the usual corrupted profile problem that has plagued Windows forever ...the usual messages that it cannot log the user on with a copy of their roaming profile, and that it will use a temporary one. Some folder redirections (that are initiated via Group Policy) also don't get applied. Users don't see errors when logging off from a "good" profile, and NTUSER.DAT etc. seemingly gets written correctly - the next time they log on, around half the time the users will get these errors as described below:
Event viewer logs show "cannot find the file specified" errors for NTUSER.DAT, along with "directory name is invalid" errors for some of the folder redirections.
More worrying (and what I think might be the real reason for these failures) are the "offline caching is enabled on the roaming profile share" errors. I think that the client-side caching might not be working - possibly the profiles aren't getting flushed and written correctly upon logout?
Now, unfortunately the MMC snap-in for managing shares doesn't seem to support changing the behaviour for client-side caching on the CIFS shares (as confirmed in the latest 7000-series Admin Guide on page 198).
I've been thinking about unchecking the "Enable Oplocks" box which from the CIFS side would completely stop all client-side caching I presume?
Is this likely to be the culprit here, or is there any other known behaviour that could be causing these errors? Is it also worth disabling "Cache device usage" altogether for the Profiles share itself?
Can anyone help? It's a bit of a strange problem, and something I don't want to raise with Sun on our support contract just yet, since at first glance it looks like a Windows problem, but I suspect the storage could well be to blame...

Unfortunately, this is still not working correctly...
So, it looks like it's not related to the offline caching seeing as it all works on the Q2009 despite the warnings...
Some more errors coming out of userenv.log on the affected Windows machines:
USERENV(280.284) 10:07:33:230 ReconcileFile: GetFileAttributes on the source failed with error = 2
USERENV(280.284) 10:07:33:230 CopyProfileDirectoryEx: ReconcileFile failed with error = 2
and later:
USERENV(280.284) 10:07:33:245 GetShareName: WNetGetConnection initially returned error 2250
USERENV(280.284) 10:07:33:245 CopyProfileDirectoryEx: Leaving with a return value of 0
USERENV(280.284) 10:07:33:245 RestoreUserProfile: CopyProfileDirectory failed. Issuing default profile
...which then forces the TEMP profiles.
All other errors linked to this look like "file not found", "invalid path" etc. when the files are present and the paths are correct.
Manually mapping drives using CIFS with UNC paths sporadically fails too now. We have a bunch of GPOs that map shares to users depending on their group memberships - these too are sporadically failing.
It certainly looks to me like it could be a CIFS problem introduced in the Q2010 release.
I'm going to raise a ticket with Sun...

Local and Roaming profiles not being created

Hello all,
I'm in need of help and I wondered if there was anyone out there with some suggestions.
The problem is that one of our sites has Netware 5 and Zfd3.2 and there are no longer any roaming profiles or local profiles being created. Volatile user is not used. Roaming profiles go to the users home directory. All file rights are fine. DLU is still working. Novell client on W2K workstations is 4.90. All other sites appear to be OK.
I suspected that the user policy was at fault and so created a test user package and associated a test user to it = same result.
I have checked from top to bottom and compared all settings to other sites and can see no difference or anything unusual. I've been working on this for 2 days now and I'm going grey and bald.
Any suggestions anyone?
I'll buy a pint for anyone with the answer - LOL.
Thanks in advance

Roaming Profile are not stored completely

Hello NG
In our environment we work with NWClient 2 SP1 IR9, ZCM11 SP1a and Roaming
profile is activated by a ZCM policy.
Now we have the problem, that when a user logout from the workstation, the
roaming profile is not stored completely to the home profile. Strange is,
that the ntuser.dat has an updated times
The homedirectory where the roaming profiles should be stored is a NSS
volume.
On the workstation evenviewer i saw following interesting information.
Event ID 1509
Source \\?\C:\Users\MichelB\Favorites\Links
Target \\?\UNC\SERVER2$NOCSC$\HOMEL\USERS/MichelB\Windows NT 6.1 Workstation
Profile.V2\Favorites\Links
Error The system can not found the path
Source \\?\C:\Users\MichelB\Favorites
Target \\?\UNC\SERVER2$NOCSC$\HOMEL\USERS/MichelB\Windows NT 6.1 Workstation
Profile.V2\Favorites
Error The system can not found the path
etc. this happens for all folders in the profile path.
Then event ID 1534 is diplayed that says there was too many copy errors.....
And at last the Event ID 1504 that says that the roaming profile couldn't be
updated completely
I suppose that here the Novell Client has problems to write to the NSS
volume
Somebody can help me to solve this issue?

I use volatile accounts, [setting] using existing account or not doesn't make any difference.
I can demonstrate that clearing down local profiles (net user <username> /delete and rd c:\users\<username>) allows the user to log in again without any issues, but usually they can do this only once or twice before the profile blows out.
Our students are very mobile and a typical day will be 9.00-10.00 lessons, 10.00-10.30 LRC, 10.30-12.30 lessons (different class room) ........
This was identified in September when the students returned from break and we have had the issues for nearly 4 months.
Our machines are built via zen imaging, the client and agent are then installed with the appropriate enabling software for the machine (zoomtext/jaws/dragon/read&write).
Can anybody give me any pointers on this as my tech support and novell (via a SR) have not yet been able to pin point the problem and provide a fix.

LUM, integrated login, roaming profile

Re-reading many message threads in this and other forums, I'm
confused. For SLED, LUM creates users accounts on-the-fly after eDir
login (like DLU on ZEN on Windows), the Novell client reads login
scripts and maps drives (like on Windows) but integration with LUM is
less than transparent, and there may or may not be plans to support
roaming profies, without which settings and user document folders are
stuck on each machine the account was created on, making it very
difficult to support without mass confusion.
I run a college network. If we are to have a chance to make people
interested in an alternative to Windows, all those functions must be
transparent to users (as it is with the Windows client and ZEN) --
they authenticate to the directory, their local account is created,
they get their network resources, and their roaming profile settings
and locations are as expected. They logout, their info is safe on the
network, their account is deleted. They go to the next class in a
different lab and repeat. This happens thousands of times per day in
30 different labs with students of wildly different capabilities and
expectations. But it just works.
This has been the Novell experience since the beginning (16 years for
us). It is still valid. Anything less than this makes SLED an
unworkable alternative. I'm looking for a way to make it workable. By
summer we'll have 1200 XP/SLED dual boot machines in labs and offices.
To make SLED a viable alternative we need those other features.
Otherwise, it's just a toy for the curious. Unfortunate.
So, here are my end of year questions:
Which of these fundamental functions are working with which others?
Which ones are in the SP beta plans?
Which ones are not being planned?
What is the process for helping the planners understand the needs of
the users out here?
Thanks.

Mark,
Thanks for the comments. I actually don't care if it doesn't implement
the same way as Windows. I agree, that is not a good model. Copying
the profile is dumb. If the plan is to simply mount the home, that's
by far the best way.
I suspect that what we are working with is a terminology problem. If,
we define "roaming profile" to mean that the user sees what they
expect to see regardless of what machine they login to, that is all
that matters. The need to copy the profile on Windows causes all kinds
of problems and is a poor solution.
So, let me re-state what I feel our needs are: 1) the user, not having
a local account, authenticates to the linux workstation using eDir, 2)
gets all the network resources per network scripts and policies, 3)
their home "profile" looks like it should, with all settings in tact,
4) they logout and no residue is left on the workstation.
However that is accomplished, I don't care and I'm not wedded to any
Windows terminology or processes. Hope this helps.
Lyle

Roaming Profile is roaming AppData\Local and AppData\LocalLow including Outlook OST file

Hi everyone.
Well my problem with Roaming Profiles here is the AppData\Local and AppData\LocalLow directories are roaming when I believe they should not. I see these folders are kept from roaming by default within the policy. I am concerned
because within the Local directory are the OST files. Some are large and I do not want them to roam. I can trick the workstation and configure Outlook to Online mode only and that works but what about all the other directories within Local and LocalLow?
I suspect since we had XP previous to 7, the old folder structure may still be in effect somewhere but am not certain. Others I’ve spoken with have seen this behavior but I have not seen a solution quite yet.
This post (http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/windowsserver/en-US/1c618a22-b48a-43ca-81cc-64836c058207/appdatalocal-and-locallow-following-roaming-profile?forum=winserverGP) is close
to my problem but the reason it does not help me is I have created test new test users that have never had Windows XP and started out as new Win7 images. I placed the new users in a particular OU and applied a new folder redirection policy to that OU. There
is still a Default Domain Policy in effect for the entire forest but there is nothing in there (that I can see) redirecting any folders. The new policy I linked to the new OU redirects a few folders (music, pictures, desktop) to c:\temp so those do not roam.
Everything works fine except the AppData\local and AppData\LocalLow directories are roaming. The registry entry referenced in the above post shows everything to be fine, yet the
the AppData\local and AppData\LocalLow directories still roam.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
and under ExcludeProfileDirs, type REG_SZ, the value is
AppData\Local;AppData\LocalLow;$Recycle.Bin
So now I am stuck. I will scour the Default Domain Policy again but quite frankly, there isn't much in there. Anyone have any other suggestions
as to what to look for in this case?
Thanks!

Hi,
Based on your description, we can check Applications and Services Logs in Event Viewer to see if some related services got crashed.
Besides, we can install the following hotfix on a troubled computer to see if it can fix the issue.
The desktop does not load and only displays a black or blue background after you log on to a computer that is running Windows 7 or Windows Server 2008 R2

Roaming Profile at User level simply not copying...no error

Little rusty on setting this up but if I recall if I choose to setup roaming profiles at the user object level then I simply need to create a share with the appropriate share/NTFS permissions then assign the UNC path in the Profile tab in ADUC? We
are running Win 2008 R2 with Win 7 SP1 clients.
If this is correct then I have done this and the profile will simply not roam...no errors in event log, the test user simply logs in and has a normal local profile. While I am logged in as this user I can access the above UNC and create a folder so
I think permissions are ok.
Originally this computer and test user were in an OU where I set a GPO setting up Folder Redirection. Thinking that I possibly configured something incorrectly there I moved the user and computer object to a basic OU where only the default domain policy
is applied. No change.
I don't remember getting this part working to be such a hassle so I am at a loss now how to troubleshoot further.
Thanks

Hi,
Since Roaming Profile doesn’t work correctly, and you could not find any error in the event logs. At this time, I suggest you’d better first check for the correct permissions on the profile
share. In addition to logging events in the Application Event log, User Profiles can provide a detailed log to aid troubleshooting. To create a detailed log file for user profiles:
1. Start regedit and locate the following path: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon
2. Create a new value called UserEnvDebugLevel as a REG_DWORD, and set the value to 30002 in hexadecimal format.
The log file can be found at: %windir%\debug\usermode\userenv.log
Regarding how to troubleshoot Roaming Profile issue, please try to refer to the following article to see if it helps.
